after 5 restarts still all errors appeared.

.. after trying fully report all errors - going through every bug window and dialog - reporting above.. and restarting computer, all error windows stopped to appear.

.. strange. nothing got installed, changed, reinstalled and now it seems to be "fixed"?

.. i thought i'd have to reinstall the whole system, and now.. it looks alright.
